Golden’s Trusted Partner for Fuel Storage Tank Maintenance
Fleet Core brings owner-operated expertise to every tank cleaning project throughout Golden and the Front Range. We’ve seen what happens when water seeps into diesel storage. That microbial soup doesn’t just smell bad, it wrecks injectors and gums up filters faster than you’d think. Our team understands altitude effects on fuel storage, temperature swings between Golden’s winters and summers, and how these factors accelerate contamination in stored petroleum.
We don’t just pump out your tank and call it done. Our process involves systematic inspection, complete residue removal, and detailed documentation that gives you peace of mind. Whether you’re managing backup generator fuel for a healthcare facility off Washington Avenue or storing diesel for construction equipment near the Coors campus, we’ve handled tanks of every size and configuration. That’s the difference between a vendor who shows up with a vacuum truck and a partner who actually knows fuel chemistry.

Why Regular Maintenance Matters
The Risks of Neglect
Leaving tanks unchecked invites risks no operation can afford:
- Contaminated Fuel: water and sludge lead to clogged filters, microbial growth, and fuel inefficiency.
- Corrosion Hazards: tank rust weakens structural integrity and increases the risk of leaks.
- Regulatory Trouble: outdated or degraded tanks can fail inspections and incur financial penalties.
Fleet Core tackles these risks head-on, so you can focus on running your business — not worrying about your fuel system.
How Often Should Tanks Be Maintained?
Stay proactive with a schedule designed for your tank type:
- High-Use Tanks (Generators and Fleet Systems): maintenance annually ensures reliability during critical times.
- Long-Term Storage Tanks: every 2–3 years, depending on environmental conditions, prevents sediment buildup and fuel degradation.
Speak with Fleet Core to create a maintenance plan customized to your operations.

Fuel Delivery
Direct Supply of Premium Quality Diesel Delivered When & Where You Need It
Our fuel delivery service brings diesel, gasoline, and DEF directly to your Golden location on your schedule, whether that’s routine fill-ups or emergency response. No broker markups, no supply chain delays. Just reliable fuel from a local supplier who answers the phone at 2 AM when your generator runs low during a storm.
Diesel Fuel Testing
We Can Tell You Exactly What Is In Your Fuel Tank
Professional fuel testing analyzes diesel and gasoline samples for water content, microbial contamination, particulate levels, and chemical degradation. You get objective data about fuel condition before it causes injector failures, filter plugging, or system corrosion. We provide the kind of information that turns reactive maintenance into strategic planning.
Fuel Polishing
Restore Contaminated Fuel Without the Waste
Fuel polishing salvages contaminated fuel through multi-stage filtration that removes water, particulates, and microbial growth. We turn questionable diesel back into reliable power. You’re not dumping thousands of gallons and starting over; you’re recovering your investment while protecting equipment from damage.
Eco-Friendly Oil & Fuel Spill Cleanup
Fast, Effective Spill Response That Actually Works
Petro Buster petroleum cleaner tackles oil and fuel spills with biodegradable chemistry that breaks down hydrocarbons without harsh solvents or toxic residues. Whether you’re dealing with a diesel spill at a construction site near Golden Gate Canyon or hydraulic fluid contamination at a manufacturing facility, this solution handles cleanup without creating secondary environmental problems.
Oil Analysis
Catch Equipment Problems Before They Cause Equipment Failures
Oil analysis reveals wear metals, contamination, and chemical breakdown in engine oil and hydraulic fluids, giving you early warning of bearing wear, coolant leaks, or fuel dilution. Running regular oil analysis on your construction equipment or fleet vehicles means you’re replacing parts on your schedule, not scrambling after something breaks down on a job site.
